Nagesh Kukunoor brings Sonal Sehgal in Aashayein Movie

Film newcomer, Sonal Sehgal will be seen in the Nagesh Kukunoor’s new upcoming movie “Aashayein”. Nagesh Kukunoor brings an Indian television actress Sonal Sehgal for his movie Aashayein in which she play a lead role with John Abraham.

Sonal was assisting Pradeep Sarkar for his film “Lafangey Parindey” before entering into the glamorous world. Sonal said, “Before I started doing ads and video clips, I was assistant director with Pradeepda, since he was the only one in Delhi. I really learnt a lot under his guidance.”

Before this movie, Sonal Sehgal acted in many TV Serials, but she wanted to turn into a famous director. She said that she would soon direct a movie if possible. Now, Aashayein promos are live on Television and Sonal is in effective character to play on.

Sonal had also played role in couple of movies, but unfortunately did not hit in the box office. In the movie Aashayein, Sonal plays role as Nafisa a doting, loving, loyal girlfriend of john and she wishes that love always wins.

Story of the movie ‘Aashayein’ is based on a compulsive gambler (John Abraham) who discovers new meanings of fortune and life through a dramatic turn of events. It is the tale of Rahul’s journey from darkness to light. A journey about love, hate, life, death and above all, hope.

She has dream to become a star like Charlie Chaplin. She also added “One day I will surely turn director, but not at the moment. I wouldn’t want to talk about the movie so soon; the director will be announcing it soon.”

Last two year, Nagesh Kukunoor’s directed two movies “Bombay to Bangkok” and a thriller “8X10 Tasveer” were rejected outright by the audience. His two other movies “Aashayein” and “Yeh Haunsla” have been unreleased for various reasons. Both movies are produced by Percept Picture Company. The first look of Aashayein was revealed in April 2008, but the producers have now managed to gather enough courage and release it.

Now, Nagesh is back at work and he is working to bring out the first copy of Aashayein. Another source tells us that the film will be releasing on August 27. “The film was ready but Nagesh is reworking and polishing things so that it looks new,” says the source.
